What People Say

“I was able to confront my grief and receive the help I so desperately needed. I can’t imagine how I would have managed without the support I received and I’m so thankful that they were there for me.

“The youth counsellor is fantastic. She helped the kids understand their feelings. Having a third party walk the boys through their grief and loss helps us all not to feel so alone. We have the tools to help each other.”
